In this historical romance adventure the wealthy Miss Betty with a heart of gold falls in love with the dashing Rafe. After saving Betty s life in a boat trip gone wrong, Rafe s unscrupulous family members try to piece together who is in fact responsible for the accident and who must seek absolution for it. This throws Betty into the deepest sort of moral confusion…but not without a silver lining. Despite being a master of the horror genre due to the worldwide acclaim of Dracula and its adapted screenplay starring Bela Lugosi, Stoker has brought something different with this piece. A short, but brilliant read that reflects Stoker s love of the romance genre. Miss Betty is highly recommended for Bram Stoker aficionados as well as fans of H.P.Lovecraft, H.G.Wells and Edgar Allan Poe.Abraham Bram Stoker was born in Dublin in 1847. Turning to fiction in his later years, Stoker published his first short story The Crystal Cup (1872) in London Society magazine. In the 1880s and 1890s, he published Under the Sunset (1882) and an adventure novel titled The Snake’s Pass (1890).It was the publication of Dracula in 1897 which launched Stoker into literary stardom.
